My four-seasons all-conditions commuter: 2006 Trek Portland

A Volvo XC70

Because it can haul while it hauls.

My backup commuter, a 2000 Trek 1000 (AKA YellowBike!)

A 60s Chevy Nova Wagon

It's got the concept down, but its lacking the refinement of the higher-end stuff.

Roadie #1, my 1996 Litespeed Classic (AKA Jeeves)

A Mercedes S350

Luxury car ride, sports car handling, all day comfort, never met a piece of road it didn't like. And after all, the only correct color for any Mercedes is titanium gray.

Roadie #2, my 1999 Schwinn Peloton (AKA Blue Steel)

An older Porsche 911

Yeah, the newer ones are faster and flashier, but back in the day...
